In the intro, mention the report by the World Bank titled Enabling the Business of Agriculture (EBA).
In the body, mention the constraints faced by the smallholder in accessing agricultural inputs, markets, finance, human resources, and information. In the suggestions mention the role of the government in creating enabling environment through a suitable regulatory framework etc.
Conclude by mentioning the need to take into account these constraints while formulating the policies for the farmers.
